[Q] xperia mini pro sk17a help, please - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hello everyone, this is my first post on the forum. Recently I had my xperia with android 2.3 unlocked 'cause i wanted to switch my service provider (I live in Mexico, btw) but ever since then the phone's been having constant freezes and if the phone unfreezes I get a message saying that com.sonyericsson.homescreen has failed.
Any advice? Thanks in advance!

Only way is to download the flash tool, flash se 2.1 rom, root it and install xrecocery.
Since your system is formated the files required for xrecovery is gone.

[Q] Going back to genuine SE 2.1

I am using Xperia X10 and updated with BETA 3 2.2 two months back, now i want to unroot it and go back to the genuine version 2.1. Please help.

Just use sony ericsson PC companions repair function. Its like having your phone new again.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
You sure that'll work? At the end of the day I get an error when SEUS/PC Companion finished the download and wanted to install.
So what I do is use the Global Generic 2.1.A.0.435 Firmware and flash it using FlashTool 0.2.6. I think that should make it official rite?

I tried that but my phone is already cant carry out any function anymore,pc companion cant detect my phone at all.anyway,thx.
Then search in neo general section for flashtool and ftf files. You'll need to flash ftf using flash tool.

Download pc companion or sony update service, click in sus on your phone, reinstall/repair firmware (something like that) and then you just have to plug your phone in flashmode again. It will flash the firmware (guess it will wipe data) and it should be fine
I've got the same problem as you. just download firmware for your device (search in google), then flash via flashtool.

What Was the Previous Version Of Your Android before Upgrading It to .587 ?
This Problem is very Common Among Those use .58 of 2.3.4 on their LWW before Upgrading.Just Remove Your SD card and Completely Format It , You can Copy ur music and other personal files But DO NOT COPY files created My phone like android , data , .android_secure or something simply copy those are of ur personal Interest.
Then Flash The .ftf from the link given below and flash .58 firmware and root ur device (if u wish but if not leave the step no. 3 undone and u will not be rooted) then upgrade using ur phone To .62 as a system update from the update center (do not use PC).
after that u will get a clean .62 Firmware.
If u wish to install the ICS please install it via Offline mode as it provides u clean install and no problem (i am using it)

Right you think its useless? Or that you cant flash a custom rom with flashtool?
Sent from my LT22i using xda app-developers app
It's not useless at all, but it's useless here. For a custom Rom you need to unlock boot loader which will definitely void warranty. Be safe man.
Sent from Xperia P, using tapatalk.
download an official jb firmware for your phone! download flashtool! enable usb debugging and connect your phone to the pc! Then choose the file you have downloaded and flash it!
You can also use SUS (Sony Update Service)......BTW did you use pcc to install it or downloaded it OTA.....
Sent from Space!
Try SUS/PCC like a lot here are saying. Hope your Internet connection is enough. God knows I tried via official methods but ended up downloading a generic ftf and flashing it.

Stock, locked, and rooted!

Slight correction needed IMO: You need to unlock your BL only when your CUSTOM ROM needs a CUSTOM KERNEL.
He can try to repair phone with pcc or he can unlock bootloader and install STOCK or Custom Rom, who says that flashtool is only for custom roms , With unlocked boot loader he will void warranty.. yes.. a part that... he can lock the bootloader again..and I have not seen written anywhere in his topic question that he does not want to lose warranty... so mine it was just a suggestion... not an Obligation
Take care friend

anyways. My xperia P hasn't got any official update. and i am also waitng for official update rather than a manual update, I know the flashtool method is not a risky one but still you may get some problems in using jellybean. Becase the generic version and your S.I version would not be the same. my S.I = 1261-4989 ,
I have heard many bugs in jellybean, Album issue, white screen in contact and messaging, blutooth broblem, fast drain battery prob, slow charging, lagging, etc i wants to know, are these bugs are real or just a wrong imagination. Thanks
I havent seen any bugs so far for JB on xGO. And it performs quite nicely without having to edit build.prop or run init.d scripts. I'm using CE ftf.
Let's go, xGO! To the Jelly Cave!
JB stock, locked, and rooted.
